How To Cope With Boredom and Loneliness

As the years passed, SUPER HELPFUL MAN eventually had to hang up the cape and the people of Wallow Dale never heard from him again. But, superheroes don't retire, do they? Never! Well, they might take a few years off... At 82 years old, SUPER HELPFUL MAN has decided to suit up once again to dedicate his remaining years to being super helpful, like he pledged he would 45 years ago. The mild onset of dementia be damned! Point and click your way through the twilight years of a superhero gifted with the extraordinary power of the common handyman. Help the people of Wallow Dale with their minor quibbles and discover the mysterious origin of the man they call SUPER HELPFUL MAN. What turned Roy Hardcastle into such a strange little man? What effect does a lifetime of superheroics have on the body and mind? Find out in tonight's true-life movie - SUPER HELPFUL MAN: The Roy Hardcastle Story. SUPER HELPFUL MAN is an adventure game in our usual style but instead of a documentary presentation we aim to present this game as an interactive, soppy, true-life, made for TV movie. You know, the type of rubbish your Mum watches on one of those 24-hour true-life, tearjerker movie channels on cable. The game itself won't be rubbish, of course (of course!), but it will feature the same cheese, drama, questionable acting, low budget sets and tear jerking storyline seen in those awful TV movies! It's less of a Marvel blockbuster and more of a drama about the weirdo down the road that's started dressing as a superhero again sort of thing. If you liked The Mind of Marlo and How to Cope with Boredom and Loneliness then we think you will love SUPER HELPFUL MAN. Although it is narrative heavy like the other games, there's a lot more gameplay with puzzles, side jobs, dialogue trees and exploration. As such it is also a lot longer than either game, but not too long! SUPER HELPFUL MAN is also set in the same world as How to Cope with Boredom and Loneliness so don't bee surprised to see some familiar faces! Add it to your wishlist and follow our dev blog if you like. We still have a lot to do and all images on the store page are currently work in progress but everything is moving along nicely. We hope to release at somepoint before the end of the year. We'll see you there, Bleepers! - No, it's too soon to give our rabid fanbase a nickname. We don't even have a non-rabid fanbase yet. What was I thinking? How embarrassing... I should delete this. Dev Blog
